------------------------ In the meantime, I have another question for the wizards of the project, or anyone in the know: Looking at the "Named" folders in the Sh.sdl file of Silent Hunter: Wolves of the Pacific v1.5 - if I look at the Submarine folder, there are 18 folders of different boat classifications, Allied & Axis, including an AI and a Japanese boat. If I look in the Interior folder, there are 6. I am assuming that several of the folders are "shared" among classes, such as Gar/Gato and others of similar "build", and only of the boats that a "human" operator could get inside? One US captains cabin folder, one German, shared among all boats of their respective nations? This is like a spider's web, trying to wade through the structure of the game. At least there's something to wade through though. Some games don't let a user see anything "mod-able". _ |

Yes, what Billy says goes for me too in terms of appreciation for all the work being done. Not a modder myself, I eagerly (and admittedly selfishly) await the fruits of your labors, I'm sure there are hundreds like me who cannot directly support the effort but who offer our moral support, for whatever that's worth to the team.

And as an exception to our normal rule of All Maddy All the Time, we'll incluce CapnScurvy's interiors to the base mod. Also, his adding functions to the really WEIRD FOTRS2.0 keyboard commands will be in the base mod. I can't imagine that MadMax intended for us not to have a stopwatch and we need a keyboard command for periscope depth in there.

And in addition, the missions included on the CD are just awful. Typically you are beamed into the middle of the Japanese fleet with five DDs less than 1000 yards from you. No evasion tactics will work. It gives the impression of a completely unwinnable game. Falsely thinking that the missions are some kind of warm-up for the campaign and they suck at the missions, new players abandon the game. That was a crime. Lousy mission have one message. "This game isn't for you. You really suck there, buddy!"

================ A little further about what I've been doing. You can't know who's playing where, without a score card! Least that's true about the game and what functions you can preform. So, I've made a "Keyboard Layout" that you can print off to help in knowing what keys do what? The Layout is larger than the stock games, so you can read the fine print a bit better. Like the stock game, there will be another printable image called "FOTRS Reference Card" that you can use to do the same thing. That's just about where I'm at......finishing my first part by going through the "Help" file in-game, to update any changes I've made. With a little more testing, I'll be turning my attention to the Museum to make sure all assets are displayed correctly.

Hey,guys. Question for you all. One thing I find somewhat annoying in FOTRS, maybe you guys do also. It has to do with the harbor traffic and the aircraft when you leave on patrol from your base. Could anything be done to lessen having to lean on the TC key just to leave port?
